Antonio and the others are heading back from Claribel’s wedding in Africa. All of my enemies are on one ship. The stars are aligned and this is my only opportunity to take revenge. I am very upset about what my brother did, even though it has been twelve years. How can we be so different? I see myself as a kind and considerate person and yet he is so ruthless. He took Milan right from me when I didn’t even notice. I trusted him and he lied and tricked me. I feel like a fool for trusting him and giving him so much responsibility. Miranda saw the ship and asked me to end the storm. She doesn’t understand what I’m trying to do. I know she’s worried about the people on the ship but I explained to her that there was no harm done. I explained how we got to this place and why we have been alone for so long. I feel she has a right to know that royal blood is in her veins. I feel sorry for what I have done…taking away her life like I have. Ariel came to me and said that he carried out the plan exactly as I ordered him to. The ship, along with all of the crew, is safely in the cove. Ariel was asking again about when I will grant him freedom. I told him in two days he will be free if he follows my orders. In some ways, I feel guilty for using Ariel to my advantage. No one knows of him and my magic. Am I wrong to be using him? Ariel has been doing a good job following my orders. The storm went as planned and he brought Ferdinand to me and Miranda as I wanted. A marriage between my daughter and Ferdinand, Prince of Naples, would be wonderful. When I become the Duke of Milan again, I would have an alliance. Plus, I know my dear Miranda would be taken care of. I understand Sebastian and my brother have devised a plan to murder Alonso and Gonzalo. They fell into my trap when I sent Ariel to put the men to sleep. They don’t know it, but thanks to Ariel, I know every thing going on my island. Even though Alonso and Gonzalo knew that Antonio was planning to take over Milan, I feel like I should protect him from Antonio. I was watching Miranda and Ferdinand interact. My daughter is clearly in love with this man. I was overjoyed when I heard them agree to marry. My plan is going just the way I wanted. My dear Miranda will make a fine wife. Once again Ariel has informed me of a murder plan. Yet, this one is by Stephano, Trinculo and my own slave, Caliban. They are planning to kill me and burn my books. Unfortunately for them, I already know about it. I had Ariel disguise himself as a harpy to scare Antonio, Alonso, and Sebastian. It worked and they are now under my control and right where I want them to be. Although I am happy for Ferdinand and Miranda, I am quite sad that I won’t have her around much longer. She has been my main focus for twelve long years. What are my days going to be filled with now? I am worried that I punished Ferdinand too harshly. I apologized for my actions and my words towards him. I will miss my dear Miranda but I know she will be in good hands with Ferdinand. I have warned them though, if he breaks her virgin knot before the ceremonies, their marriage will be cursed. Some may say this is too harsh but I am just trying to protect my daughter. Although things are going the way I planned, I feel very sorry for the King and his men. I want to be an honest man, a man without magic. I don’t want to be on this island any longer. I need my brother’s help to return to my dukedom. He is a monster and yet I have forgiven him. He was so greedy for power that he forgot our brotherly bond. I have forgiven the men of their actions and now I need them to forgive me of mine.
